Interface

This field displays which interface is part of the virtual router.

 

 

 

 

Role

This field displays which role the interface plays in the virtual router.

 

 

Master - This interface is the master interface in the virtual router. The

 

 

interface always uses its static IP address, not the management IP

 

 

address of the VRRP group.

 

 

Backup - This interface is a backup interface in the virtual router. The

 

 

interface may use its static IP address or the management IP address

 

 

of the VRRP group, depending on whether or not the backup has

 

 

become the master.

 

 

 

 

VRID

This field displays the virtual router ID number.

 

 

 

 

Virtual Router IP

This is the interface’s IP address and subnet mask in the virtual router.

 

/ Netmask

Synchronization

 

 

 

 

 

Server Address

Enter the IP address or Fully-Qualified Domain Name (FQDN) of the

 

 

ZyWALL from which to get configuration and subscription service

 

 

updates (for services to which the backup ZyWALL is subscribed).

 

 

Usually, you should enter the IP address or FQDN of a virtual router on

 

 

a secure network.

 

 

 

 

Sync. Now

This displays if the ZyWALL is set to use legacy mode device HA and

 

 

device HA is enabled. Click this to copy the specified ZyWALL’s

 

 

configuration.

 

 

 

 

Server Port

Enter the port number that the ZyWALL you specified in the Server

 

 

Address field uses for Secure FTP. Every ZyWALL in the virtual router

 

 

must use the same port number. If the master ZyWALL changes, you

 

 

have to manually change this port number in the backups.

 

 

 

 

Password

Enter the password used to verify other ZyWALLs during

 

 

synchronization. This password is different than the one that is used for

 

 

authentication in the VRRP group. Every ZyWALL in the virtual router

 

 

must use the same password. If you leave this field blank in the master

 

 

ZyWALL, it does not allow any backup ZyWALLs to synchronize from it.

 

 

If you leave this field blank in a backup ZyWALL, it cannot synchronize

 

 

from the master ZyWALL.
